About Us
About the Club
Alfonso's Tae Kwon Do was created in 1980 out of a love and passion for Chung Do Kwan Tae Kwon Do. What began with a handful of students being taught in a garage, grew to introducing Korean Karate to thousands of students over the past three decades at multiple locations. We are an inclusive, supportive club committed to helping our students grow and see the positive impact the art has on people's lives.
About the Style
​​​​Chung Do Kwan was created in 1944 in Korea by grandmaster Won Kuk Lee. It is the first and original style of Tae Kwon Do. It came to New York City in 1963 through Lee's successor grandmaster Duk Sung Son where it then spread across America. With its roots in Shotokan Karate, Chung Do Kwan emphasizes powerful blocks, kicks and punches. You can find more about Chung Do Kwan here.
